Valerie s greatest wish is for a playhouse, and Lake Country locals are working hard and working out to make that happen.
The 8-year-old from Waukesha suffers from neuroblastoma, a type of cancer, and wished for a playhouse this summer, for herself, her Legos and her stuffed animals. To fulfill that wish via Make-A-Wish Wisconsin, On Point Fitness of Hartland s owner and members are hosting a workout and breakfast Saturday, June 5. It s all about bringing joy, said Devina Mistry, a Young Wishmakers of Wisconsin member and healthcare worker.
Mistry set the plan into motion when she set her own personal goal: to raise $1,000 for charity by the end of 2021. After agreeing to help with Valerie s wish, she reached out to her trainer, On Point Fitness Club owner Tom Grimmer, who was happy to help.
